It is 4:15 p.m. and a junior high student is walking past my house slowly with his head down, as if he had been in the gulag all day. The first few days are when the students are told about rules and regulation. It is then that the principal stresses zero tolerance with large armed uniformed cops standing near him. You do what you are told, stay out of trouble and life will be good. You trip up once and your future is lost. All that is possible is gone. You will live a life of deprivation.
It cannot be that bad: can it? I heard similar word come from the mouth of Sheriff White earlier this summer when he was speaking to Jr. High students and their parents at the local Jr. High.
